Even in a 90 with only 3 they eventually beat up on each other until the strongest survived. I'm with Fishy that it's a crap shoot.

A lot of clubs have one or two that get passed around since they typically will use up all the edible stuff in a normal sand bed rather quickly. In my experience my start only tried to climb out when he wasn't happy

I placed an order today, I always enjoy doing business with John

Thanks guys! The diamond goby we got with him jumped the first night. Too bad that fish was awesome. I'll prob give it a week and try again

Until you have to carry a tank up flights of stairs. Then acrylic is awesome

I made the mistake of pulling a table shrimp too early when I was cycling my 90. Ammonia went down, nitrite never really registered and never got nitrates. Dumped another shrimp in, left it forever and it cycled in about 2 weeks. The whole debacle set me back about a week. Live and learn.

Hi All, Haven't updated in a while. Things have been going well with the tank. We went on a vacation for a week in August and had a fellow local reefer watch it for us. Came home to some cyano (Damn Hydors the caps broke and were spinning backwards on the wavemaker) I ended up getting a...

All thosesound good, do you have a pic of the coral?

Im interested in the model of ato too

Ive had the same large bottle for years and it still works. I havent found a shelf life if there is one. Just bite the bullet and buy the bottle. At some point in this hobby youll need it.

Ive read that common glass transmits around 80% of light, acrylic closer to 90%. There are specialty glasses that get north of 87%, but glass cannot match acrylic. That article was a couple of years old, perhaps theres new technology...

You can still have some cool fish in a smaller tank! Damsels and chromis are hardy but can turn into bullies. Since you are adding fish after the clowns have established you need to make sure that they are bigger than the clowns or you get a few of them. Otherwise the clowns can really beat up...

Welcome!

Before you go through this, your aquarium store runs their SG that high? Around me the LFS run theirs lower to save $$ on salt. When you fill the swing hygrometer up with water, (assuming it's a roundish one with a white arm that floats) are you giving it a nice 'thud' on the table before you...

Sounds like a T5 fixture. They typically would have an blue/purple actinic and a daylight (10-12k) bulb right out of the box. My light schedule (and I have a different blend of bulbs now but for the sake of answering the question): Blues - 12noon to 9pm Whites - 2pm to 7:30pm Night - 8:45pm...

not a very good pic but If they are what I think they are the common name for those green zoas is radioactive dragon eyes. Looks like a torch to me too. Get the birdsnest (the brown bare tree looking one) up high and in high flow ASAP. Nice pieces.

I had a ball of chaeto in a washed blueberry container from the store. it would just float around the sump and when it got too packed I would pull it out and trim it up. I've used rubberbands in the tank with no problems.

I had a red/brown one that ate a six line and a sailfin. be careful

Mine took a while to grow under T5

I don't think you're going to have enough light to sustain it with a 2 bulb t5
